Default Stock Radio Intermittent??

92 SC 400, Stock Radio will not turn on about 50% of the time. When it does work it works fine. All other electrical things in the car seem to work great Cannon plug also seems to be seated. Both radio fuses check good. Anyone have this problem or any ideas?

Plugs not seated on the rear of the head-unit properly. Have you pulled it out to check them?

Mine was acting like that then it died. I took it out and apart it had a melted capcitor in it that i never fixed.
